not replace your own personal seamanlike diligence as owner or skipper.
We, the shipyard, have handed over a safe and reliable sailing yacht which will withstand stress when
used, according to the acknowledged rules of engineering and in compliance with the European
Recreational Craft Directive.
Naturally, damage to the boat cannot be excluded under extreme stress such as weather, striking the
ground, collisions etc.
The owner and skipper is responsible for personal safety equipment, i.e. life vests which should be
available for all persons aboard. This also includes the procurement and maintenance of a liferaft, distress
signals, first-aid box, tools, major replacement and spare parts and others.
As the European Recreational Craft Directive pays special attention to safety and fire protection you
should acquaint your crew with the safety devices and fire extinguishers and instruct them in how to
handle them.
We are constantly working on the further development of our sailing yachts. Please understand that we
have to reserve the right of any changes in design, equipment and technical installations. Therefore, the
data, pictures and descriptions in this Manual shall not be made the basis for any claim.
Should your sailing yacht be equipped with parts that are not described in the Manual and/or no
description is attached to the Owner's File, your contract dealer will inform you about the correct
handling and care.
